be the most pro union president ever. i m proud you have my back. let me say, i m honoreded to have your back and you have mine. i was so damn proud to stand in that picket line with you. the united auto workers union is here. your union has more than 400,000 members. how many do you think voted for joe biden in 2020? i saw an analysis that suggested that union members broke for biden over trump 56-40. but i m soird, they broke for biden over trump. but members in ohio and pennsylvania went for trump. is that your understanding? i would put it this simple. the majority of our members voted for president biden. do you think the endorsement is a big reason for that? without the endorsement, might they have, more of them gone to trump? given the demographics and such? i don t think so. i think even going forward, when you look at both candidates, it is very clear which one supports working class people and which one doesn t. by two simple sentences. joe biden bet on th
long it will take, remine giant questions. and day one on the job for britain s new prime minister. liz trust making the track to achieve the queen s blessing and rescuing her country s economy from free fall. up for us first, the biden factor. the president huddles with his cabinet next hour. he does so facing what you might call a high wire challenge. to navigate a still to-do list while trying to defy midterm election history. nine weeks exactly until we count your votes, and the president s approval rating remains in perilous territory. but it is on an upward trajectory, and every tick up improves democrats odds. today, a cabinet meet to go promote progress made over the summer. the biden bet, that showing your government at work can help are e frame the midterms as a choice between normal and crazy. this is not your father s republican party. this is a totally different party, man. these guys are different. i ve worked with a lot of republicans, conservative repub
